Awesome! Anyone else notice the strange white thing right behind the top most portion of the grill star.. perhaps get that sorted out and it will be a flawless victory of a car

Amazing Look! You have created a one of a kind that really enhances the original.
I have been considering painting all the chrome trim in the grill and around the windows on my Mars Red car but the body shop I use is very reluctant to paint those parts. He is concerned about the adhesion of the paint beyond a few months. Anyone have any thoughts?
PS the back drop for the pictures was well chosen....Great Work!!

I'll weigh in because I think that was the intent of the post...
I don't like it. I'm not that old (40), but to me the whole matte looks like a car in primer. IMHO, these are amazing cars and I like it when the paint and wheels make them "pop", rather than when they are all mono-chromatic or matte. Cheapens the car in my opinion, but given that 99% of everyone else LOVES it, the problem must be with me.
I will say, that I really do appreciate it when people do what they want, and so for that I give you mad props for making the car what you wanted.

You can see where the inspiration began from:

Thats pretty popular thing to do here in Korea.. They sell matte black film and you can apply them on any body parts... If its done right, it would look good as you see above.. If not, it would look like an ***... Some actually says its kinda bad for the paintjob though
Well done... Looks sikkkk
